Where do the Japanese Homeless live | A Walking Tour of Tokyo's CHEAPEST Neighborhood
In this Video I explore the rarely seen Sanya district, one of Tokyo's POOREST Neighborhood , Largest Slum in Japan.
In this walking tour, we delve into the lives of the homeless and the marginalized, discuss the economic struggles they face, and explore the historical ties to the Yakuza.
Discover the real stories behind the people who live in the shadows of one of the world's largest cities. Learn about the history of Sanya, from its origins as a labor district to its present-day challenges. We will also cover how local residents and organizations are responding to the area's social issues.
This video is not just a tour, but a deep dive into the social and historical undercurrents that shape Sanya. Perfect for those who want to understand the lesser-known aspects of Japanese society and the complexities of urban poverty.

Your “slum” area is very clean. I wish we have an area like that in California especially for the veterans.

The biggest difference is there's no endemic drug problem in Japan. Alcohol in Japan is the same price as soft drinks/Coca cola/Soda pop. Hard drugs turn people into crazed animals ☹️

It's the people who should work for themselves to be clean first 😅
That is hardly a “slum” when you compare it to the real slums in India and the Skid Row in Los Angeles
Even a slum in Japan looks 100x better than slums here in U.S. Our slums looked like 3rd world country here lol.

Crazy that your content is not popular yet. Keep it up, im gonna always comment your videos to get the algorithm going. Ps: I love the fact that you speak slowly and spell words clearly, is very useful for people like me to learn japanese
Japan just does Everything better... even Slums!
I like the way you speak Japanese. It's very easy to understand and pick out words to learn.

Lol, even the slums look like good neighborhoods. I have never seen a slum/ghetto seen this clean and taken care of
Sometimes people fall on hard times. That area is very clean. You should see american slums where the police do not go in unless heavily armed and for short times only.

If you have an old Android phone or tablet, there's tonnes of great free Japanese Language apps. If you run the phone/tablet in Airplane mode after you've installed the apps the battery will last 5x longer and there'll be no ads to bother you either. My young son is learning Japanese and Maths on a 10yo Samsung Tablet I got from a Charity shop for $20. Even an old device can be very useful as long as it runs Android 5 or better. Watching NHK World on KZread is also helpful for general knowledge about Japan. I hope this is helpful to you 👍
Great narration and great subtitles.
cool video thanks . I became interested in San'ya because of Ashita no Joe so it was cool to see the statue!
I learned a lot from your fine video . Due to the high costs of living there are more and more homeless people all around the world my friends . The work place also has become more automated , leading to not needing to higher people to do the work . Companies face higher costs every year and this leads them to replace us all at the drop of a hat in order to meet the customers need in away to remain completive and pay investors . Today they are the homeless , but the next day it could be anyone of us living a life that we did not plan for .
For a slum it looks clean

They work. If course they work, it's Japan. Our Homeless in Minneapolis pan handle in the grocery store parking lot near a fast food restaurant that starts pay at $17 hour plus meals & uniforms & can't find enough employees. Cultural differences.

Thing is, in the USA if you go to jail, that’s a death sentence for jobs. So even if someone applied with a record, they would get turned down if the restaurant had a strict background check. My friend tried to get a job for 7 years with a record and only managed to work at Walmart then fired in a year because they went to a funeral (which was approved by their boss.) So you can’t put everyone in the same boat .

Just curious, why is it so quiet, not many people walking around. Thanks for show-casing this district, but it doesn't seem like a homeless area at all.

aside from the assistance they received, usually homeless people in Japan who actually sleep on the street would tidy up their sleeping area, keep their boxes and stuff away early in the morning before the rush hour. then they'll go to work. that's why you don't see tents and whatnot. at most, you'd see the cans they collected like the ojiisans in the video. but even that, it's still very tidy and clean.
Nice content 😊

There are plenty of the blue tents on the moat area of Osaka Castle. You will see them if you take a boat trip around the castle
a lot of people in the comments complaining that the slums he showed in Japan are not slums lol. you need to understand that this is considered slum to them. yes, it's different from your countries, but it's their slum. appreciate the difference, don't get defensive. just because you're poor and homeless doesn't mean you have to do drugs or be dirty. there are homeless people sleeping in makeshift tents and cardboard boxes in Japan. but they're not lazy or dirty like the typical image we have of a homeless person. they'd tidy up their areas first thing in the morning and then go to work or school or hangout. they'll pull out their boxes and find a place to sleep late in the night when there's no one around. that's why you rarely see them. they don't hang around on the streets looking like zombies in broad daylight like in your countries. they're almost invincible. but these days I heard there's a rise in runaway teenagers being homeless and living on the street, which has become quite a problem in Japan especially Tokyo.
Nice places.👍

It's very sad that these older Men don't have families to look after them ☹️ It's so typical though, that even the slums in Japan are tidy and well organized 🥹 The government needs to pay more attention to cheap housing and services for the poor, elderly, ill and disabled. Thank you for making this video to highlight the difficulties these people are facing...
Your slum is so clean.

相互条約という国際法で、あなたの国で日本人の障碍者が福祉を受けられるなら、あなたは日本での行政サービスを得ることができます。詳しくはまず、あなたの国の障害者サービスを確認してください。
Same on you for publishing this. It’s not really a “Slum” as we know it.😡
5:55 min I saw that Ghibli house from my hotel few years back and was wondering if its abandoned or haunted 😂
Friend wanted to know if money was not a problem would it be easier to clean up the slums and help their way of life?

Happens all around the world, even in Europe nowadays. Lots of "cheap", vacant housing in the remote areas. But since most if not all services have left as well, living in such far away regions becomes a hassle of its own, especially without a car of your own.

An American female blogger showed us the real slums in Japan near the river. Sad situation because if it gets typhoon their slum houses surely get wipe out. Maybe, you have not really gone to those real slums. The American blogger able to capture the huypocricy of the Japanese government ang their in human treatment of their citizens. Maybe you should watch her account in KZread because you failed by comparison. You simply do not want the world to know how Japanese government failed to attend their senior homeless citizens.
